About our Executive Director
I, Ambassador Christopher Norto Touabli Jr, was born in Harbel Margibi County, Liberia. My parents, Mr. Henry Norto Touabli and Mrs. Rose Davis Touabli, raised me in a nurturing and supportive environment that instilled in me a strong sense of purpose and determination.
I completed my early education at St. Francis Catholic High School, where I developed a passion for learning and personal growth. After graduating from high school, I embarked on a journey of academic and professional development that has shaped my career.
Driven by a desire to make a positive impact on African youth, I pursued further education at various prestigious institutions. I successfully completed the Faith Bible Institute, which deepened my understanding of faith and its role in leadership. Additionally, I was privileged to attend the Jim Jackson School of Leadership and Professional Studies in Liverpool, England, where I obtained a certificate in servant leadership. This experience broadened my horizons and honed my leadership skills.
To further expand my knowledge and global perspective on leadership, I participated in the International Youth Conference headed by the Generational Young Leader in New York, United States of America. This enriching experience granted me an ambassadorial certificate in Leadership, enhancing my ability to effectively lead and inspire others.
In pursuit of academic excellence and professional expertise, I graduated from the Computer Secretarial Institute in Maryland County, Liberia. This foundational education equipped me with essential skills in the rapidly advancing field of technology.
My commitment to youth empowerment and African leadership led me to participate in the International Model of African Youth Leaders in Tokyo, Japan. This conference provided me with invaluable insights into leadership principles and offered an opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals from across the continent.
In addition to my academic accomplishments, I am also proud to be the author of the book "The Present Step which benefits the future," which emphasizes the importance of taking action in the present to create a better future. This book is now a part of the curriculum at the Africa Youth Leadership Institute (AYLI), where I serve as the Executive Director.
I am studying Human Resource Management at the Tuazama School of Leadership and Professional Studies in Pennsylvania, United States of America. These pursuits exemplify my dedication to personal and professional growth, as well as my commitment to becoming a well-rounded leader in my field.
Throughout my journey, I remain steadfast in my goal to empower African youth and inspire positive change on the continent. My experiences, education, and passion have shaped me into the leader I am today, and I eagerly look forward to the opportunities that lie ahead in my continued pursuit of creating a brighter future for Africa's youth.
